The Red Lion

Stinks of toilet throughout the place, rude staff and the over 6 after 6pm rule is ridiculous! Avoid

We went here after seeing the 4 waterfalls. We aren't from around here but felt very welcome. The food was great quality. Great cozy pubby atmosphere. Highly recommend 👌

Went for Sunday lunch. Possibly the worse I've ever had. The 'slow cooked lamb' had absolutely no flavour or texture, it was literally the consistency of smooth paté. The fat hadn't been rendered down so it was not pleasant.
The vegetables were so al dente they were difficult to cut with a dinner knife, I think a cow would have had a problem chewing the tough, outer leaves of a Savoy cabbage and the Yorkshire puddings was so overcooked I genuinely couldn't put my knife through it, as was the cremated remains of a parsnip. The whole plate lacked any seasoning, flavour or finesse.
Very disappointed...
The wonderful sounding alcohol free, blackberry cocktail tasted like ribena with cheap, alcohol free fizz. I have to say, I was expecting slightly more than a small champagne flute with two raspberries floating on the surface especially as they cost more than a large glass of wine. Don't get me wrong, everyone has to make a profit and I don't mind paying...as long as I can enjoy what I'm paying for.
We won't be going back.

Amazing place staff were superb even though it was packed

Great for a pint at the end of a waterfall walk

What a find! Beautiful place in an amazing location. The food was stunning - a great place for a special night

Really nice Sunday lunch. Seated quickly as a walk in and the food was wonderfu! If only they could bottle their gravy, I would have taken it home with me 👍

Recommended by locals because it is somewhat secluded on a hill in a picturesque location next to an old church with a cemetery, the Red Lion, which its name and exterior would suggest is a pub, turns out to be a fancy restaurant with creative cuisine that could easily earn a Michelin star and even offers vegetarian options. The cosy atmosphere and extremely attentive staff justify the slightly higher prices.
Highly recommended!

Excellent meal, great vegetarian options, friendly service , great ambience

Me and my partner came for dinner after a long hike. Had a fantastic meal. top quality food and experience. We ended up with taxi issues and the landlords made a real effort to help and accommodate. Very grateful and we will be back! Thanks again.

Staff brilliant, food good, but a little bit expensive

Great pub situated in beautiful area. Roast dinners were very good. Service perfect.
Highly recommend!!!

Delicious pizza and staff are absolutely lovely. Would recommend sitting inside or out. Had a fab time!

Only tell your best friends. Wales' best pub.

Beautiful pub with a lovely community feel in stunning surroundings. Charming and efficient service, great outside area with family-friendly seating, and a great chilled vibe on a summer’s evening. Could spend hours whiling away an evening with friends of family.

A traditional country pub oozing atmosphere and character. Simply the best. The food was excellent and delivered by very attentive and friendly staff.

Great food in a lovely atmosphere

Food was good quality, but very pricy for such small portions. We popped in for lunch on a whim whilst on holiday. Starter sized food at London main prices. £23 for a small mushroom and tarragon pie. Some veg, no chips, and an unnecessary creamy sauce. Won't be returning I'm afraid 😕

Gorgeous pub and lovely food. But the lady behind the bar always seems disappointed to see customers.

One of the best bar meals I've had in years.

Beautiful food, great staff and truly stunning surroundings.

I will definitely be back.

Very rude behaviour from the staff. They're inconsiderate. Didn't provide any map for the way to the waterfall when we requested them. Will not recommend anyone to visit this pub.

Cracking food and the waitresses were super nice and friendly!
The kids fish dinner was massive and really well priced. It’s a change from other places that rip you off for 4 chicken nuggets or fish fingers.

Celebrating a birthday meal with family and was extremely disappointed to be turned away due to having a baby. It was not a child running around causing chaos, it was a very well behaved (and quiet) baby in a pushchair. Very upsetting to have birthday celebrations ruined. Would not recommend.

Lovely pub with great scenery, we book in advance to make sure we get a table , we walked in and was seen to our table straight away, service is great and the food was fab 👌

Adresse à ne pas louper. C'était parfait. Merci pour tout

Called in today after the 4 falls trail wasn’t made welcome, staff was very rude and abrupt, went for a pizza down in their pizza van the staff down there wasn’t happy either made to feel very unwelcome, not what you expect especially when it’s such a nice spot ruines the atmosphere!

My family and I went for a long walk to the waterfalls and were absolutely famished afterward. We decided to check out this spot since it was close by and on the way home. We arrived at 5:45 PM, but to our shock, they refused to seat us because our daughter is 5 years old. If you're a person of color, avoid this place—they're RACIST!

Lovely pub in a beautiful location, the food was amazing, staff friendly and attentive, will definitely recommend and will be returning 😊

Refreshment stop Post Pen y Fan walk

We went here for a family dinner. The food was excellent, the service really good. It was quiet but it is a Tuesday evening. Lovely place for a nice dinner and a drink.

Great pub. Stopped for a drink in the beer garden, absolutely beautiful 😍

Lovely pub, friendly staff, and the food was superb. Best sirloin steak I've had in a long time.

Beautiful place, lovely food, lovely atmosphere and excellent service. Highly recommended

Popped in for a drink, great atmosphere and nice open fire. Didn’t eat as they were fully booked but the food looked great

Awesome find, amazing food and great service will definitely be returning!

The service was shocking. I spoke to a lady behind the bar, and she had an attitude like she didn’t care. We couldn’t have the food as it was before dinner, so we decided to sit down with friends for a drink. Since we’ve not been able to see each other very often, we pulled a few tables together, only to be warned by another server that this was not acceptable. I was so shocked when she told me to put the tables back. Clearly, people have forgotten what these hospitality services are meant to be. It is us who you are serving, and it is us for whom you build an open restaurant and pubs. You make your effort to welcome every guest so they will come back over and over, but with this attitude, I don’t understand how you’ve been able to sustain such high score feedback.

Had the grilled aubergine with tahini paste and the halloumi burger..both delicious. Very narrow track to get there but def worth the visit, service was quick and waitresses were all really friendly and helpful.x

Very enjoyable experience and an amazing place to go will definitely go again fully recommend

My sister and brother-in-law took me here for lunch, and I have to say it's a hidden gem. The location is down a very tiny little country road, barely enough room for 1 car, but most definitely worth looking for if you're in the area. It's a fabulously cozy and comfy little spot, service and food are also excellent. I highly recommend it.

Great pub to pop in for a relaxing pint.

Outstanding- superb food all locally sourced and an excellent selection to cater for all tastes. Wine menu lacked variety however, more old world wine needed perhaps.

Absolutely brilliant food, on a par with some fine dining restaurants in London.

It however must be remembered that this is a public house and serves walkers etc and people popping in for a beer (or three).

There is also an outside area with pods and a pizza stove, all in all it’s heaven to me.

Excellent beer as well!😃

We love the red lion. Food unreal, views, good ales- right next to our favourite waterfall trail. Sunday roast was nice and by the roasting fire!

Excellent food and friendly service. A real gem

We had high expectations following our waterfall walk. Location was beautiful, the food smelt amazing HOWEVER we felt the pricing did not reflect what we thought would be gastro pub quality. It was not. My Welsh brie and cranberry ciabatta was very disappointing. Looked like shop bought ciabatta and far too much cranberry which over powered the meal. Small portions of chips and the salad had far too much red onion. Would have been better with a home made coleslaw. My husband had shepherd's pie. Very small portion.and we weren't too sure what the hard vegetable that it came with...whatever it was it added no value but merely filled space kn the plate. Two main meals 2 pints and a coffee over £50. Really? I wouldn't mind if it was wow, but it failed and quite frankly was the biggest disappointment of the day. I feel sorry for all the other tourists who will do what we did this coming Summer. The pizza outside I think would have been a better option.

Beautiful country pub. Roaring fires and the best food we've had on an evening out for as long as I can remember. The last mile or so getting there is a tight country lane and may be awkward if the lane is busy but it is so worth it. Natalie, the landlady was lovely, as was Meghan who waited on us perfectly and a huge thank you to the chefs who cooked our fabulous meal. It was my wife's 64th birthday and she had a card waiting for her signed by all the staff, such a lovely thought. The wine my wife had was lovely with what seemed like generous measures and the smooth bitter was a throwback to when beer was beer. It tasted of hops, was, clean, fresh and an absolute joy to drink. 100% we will be going back and I highly recommend a visit!

We had a lovely evening. Food is always top-notch, and the staff are so nice and friendly.

Consistency great food service and quality ! Good quality real ales. Highly recommend a visit. You may even see Mr Depp on his random visits. 🤭

Really lovely pub from the moment you drive up to it. I was there on my own and the staff were really attentive and helpful. Food was amazing - at the higher end price wise but worth it, wouldn’t say it was expensive at all for the quality.

Just a few beers for an hour or so. The warmest cosiest environment you could imagine and hope for in a pub. Excellent service and a pint of Bass that I'd give 10/10.

The mountain top area that it's located at is superb.

Give it a visit, you won't be disappointed.

Thoroughly enjoyed. Food was very nice, and we were sat by the fireplace

It is a lovely pub with good atmosphere inside. We didn't have food inside as it was full but we ordered chips from outside at the pizza place which were £5 for just a handful of small thin chips! Very disappointed.
